Today I’m starting a conversation I’ve been feeling pulled toward for a while now - stress, safety, and why so many of us feel stuck in hormone patterns even when we’re doing the right things.
This is the first episode in what I’m calling the Safety vs. Stress Series, where we’re going to slow down and look at how our body responds to different types of stress, why it prioritizes survival over hormone balance, and how we can start c...
It's a new year and I haven't quiiiite gotten my goals written down yet but I'm talking through how I like to make goal planning realistic as a mom by breaking down goals into seasons & keeping my cycle in mind. I'm sharing some goals that I have + a few updates for the podcast in 2026.
This episode just picked up where we left off last time, and it grew out of a question we’ve been sitting with lately: what’s ACTUALLY shaping women’s health right now?
Today, Heather and I talk through the health and hormone trends we see gaining momentum as we head into 2026. Some of them are things we’ve personally seen help women and we feel good about. Others made us stop and ask more questions before moving forward. And in a ...
If I had a secret weapon to help you have less PMS, better periods, and more energy in 2026 and I didn't tell you about it ASAP...what would I even be doing?
Today I'm telling you what I've been doing lately that has helped me so much with getting back into some of the habits I've been slacking on that help my hormones every single time.
It's actually so much more simple than we've been making it, and I...
We’re back today with a reflection that we’ve been thinking about this week - what have we done in 2025 that really moved the needle for our health - mentally, spiritually, and physically?
I brought my hormone bestie, Heather, on today so we could share some of the things that we are so glad we learned and implemented this year to keep us moving forward in health and life. Spoiler alert - nothing I’m sharing is a favorite supplemen...
I'm a big podcast girl, so when Spotify Wrapped came out this year I thought it would be fun to share with you what my favorite podcasts are. My taste is a little all over the map + I share my Spotify with my kids so this one is extra fun. The truth is you really don't know a person until you hear what their favorite podcasts are. If you're listening on Spotify put yours in the comments!
Have you seen the ads for parasite cleanses that fix EVERYTHING and thought...maybe I need to do that?
Maybe you do, but it also can make things worse, not better if your body isn't ready!
Let's talk today about when a parasite cleanse is the right option, what to know first, and how to decide if the one you're thinking about is actually the right next step for you or not. I'll help you sort through if you need l...
It's the end of the year (already!) and that means I'm auditing my life in general and deciding what I want to come with me into next year and what I want to change. Today I'm talking about how I'm simplifying my health and hormone health in a few ways - making BBT tracking easier so I'll actually do it again, and simplifying my supplements.
Mentioned in this episode:
Have you ever caught yourself holding your breath and realizing you’ve been tense for hours without even noticing? That was me all the time, until I started paying attention to what my body was asking for, rather than what I thought I should be doing.
So, today, I’m talking about rest. The real kind. Not sleep (though most of us aren’t getting enough of that either), but the kind of rest that lets your shoulders drop, your breath sl...
Anyone else feeling way overstimulted & regretting a few Black Friday impulse buys? It's so easy to think that this one next thing will be the thing to fix your health, your stress, or your life in general.
If you're there with me let's take a breath togther and simplify what we're doing this next season to what actually feels good again.

Does drinking alcohol affect your hormones? It definitely does, but how much you drink and how well your body tolerates it depends on you!
If you are wondering how much alcohol you can enjoy over the holidays without totally throwing off your hormones, I brought back a conversation that answers this in the clearest, most honest way - without guilt, scare tactics, and without telling you that you can never drink again.
Here’s what w...
Hey friends just a little Wednesday bonus episode for you! I know it's a big step to book a call and get all of the coaching details if you're not quite sure if you're ready yet so I thought I would make it easy for you.
I'm sharing today exactly how NYH coaching works, why it's set up the way it is, and hopefully answer some questions you have about if coaching is for you or not.

Are you drinking too much coffee for YOU? If so, it could be making your PMS and anxiety worse, even if you’re not drinking “that much.”
So many women blame their mood swings or breast tenderness on hormones alone, but caffeine plays a much bigger role than we realize. If your symptoms flare up right before your period, it may be that your caffeine tolerance is changing and is affecting your system differently at this time, so your ...
This what I'm into is a chat with my girlies all about Thanksgiving plans, fall decor, Thanksgiving menu, and how I've been doing daily energy audits to make sure my energy out isn't greatly surpassing my energy in.
No tips, tricks, or hacks to fix your life or hormones, just the real BTS in my life and some fun things I've been doing to make fall and the holidays feel cozy.

Let’s talk about something most of us have struggled with at some point - acne that just won’t quit.
You’ve tried the skincare, the supplements, the “clean” eating, and still, your skin seems to have a mind of its own.
In this episode, I sat down with Katie Stewart, holistic nutritionist and host of The Clear Skin Chronicles, and we had the most down-to-earth conversation about acne, the kind you wish you’d heard years ago.
Together, ...
Lately, every time I talk to a client (or honestly, a friend), the same thing comes up: “I’m so tired. I’m taking electrolytes, eating clean, supplementing magnesium… doing everything right, but I still feel off.”
And I get it because I’ve been feeling that too.
So, I sat down with my friend Dr. Heather Rhodes, and we started comparing notes - our clients’ labs, our own tests, and all the little things women are saying right now.
What...
Are you constantly tired, moody, or bloated, and wondering how the heck you got here when you’re doing all the right things?
Let’s unpack something most women have never even heard of but definitely feel the effects of: mineral depletion. Specifically, the slow oxidizer pattern that keeps your energy low, your PMS raging, and your emotions stuck on numb.
I’ve seen this same pattern in hundreds of high-achieving women, and today, I’m...

Have you ever wondered if your IUD or birth control pill might actually be the reason your mood feels off? Like, one week you’re fine, and the next you’re snapping at everyone, and just feeling not yourself?
You’ve probably been told, “It’s just stress.” But that gut feeling you keep getting, the one whispering something changed since I got this IUD? Let’s talk about that.
In this episode, we’re getting real about what the latest res...
Yes you read that right - what if your BREAD could be super nutrient dense and help fill in nutrient gaps you've been struggling with for yourself or your family?
Let's talk about what real bread is, how you can access it, and why my family is now into eating bread as a healthy food vs trying to keep it minimal like we have in the past.
